The FDA, according to the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994, defines a dietary supplement as:

Meant to be taken to aid diet

Having one or more ingredients

Meant to be taken orally

Having on its label “Dietary Supplement”

At a time in the past, the FDA regulated diet products just like they do with food. After enforcing a number of basic quality checks for manufacturers in August of 2007, they ensured products are free of contaminants, are safe for consumption and are appropriately labeled. As a result, they no longer approve or disapprove products.
